SUMMARY:Invasive Plant Guided Trail Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided walk on Chocomount Hill Trail – one of the newest HLFM Land Trust trails\, and learn how to identify and remove invasive plants.\nOur guides will help you develop the practical skills required to improve the Fishers Island native landscape on your property! \nWHEN: Saturday\, October 11\, 2025\nTIME: 1-2 pm\nPLACE: Meet at the Museum @ 12:30 pm before proceeding to carpool to Chocomount Hill Trail.\nLight refreshments and Q&A at the end of the trail walk!\nDRESS: We recommend long pants\, long sleeves\, and gloves to protect yourself from thorns and poison ivy. \nThis event is free\, but please register so we know you’re coming! \nREGISTER FOR FREE!Please let us know when you register for the event\, if you have or do not have a FIDCO sticker to get to the east side of the island so we can coordinate rides! \nDid you know that some invasive plants are easier to identify and remove during the fall? During this walk we will help you develop the practical skills required to improve the Fishers Island native landscape on your property! \nWhy Chocomount Hill Trail? \nThe HLFM Land Trust works diligently to remove invasive plants from their properties\, but as a newer trail\, it has not yet undergone the extensive invasive plant management that other trails have benefited from. This gives us a unique opportunity to find many species of invasive plants in one\, short\, easily accessed trail! We want to take advantage of this moment to share this experience with the Fishers Island community. \nOur incredible guides have many years of experience removing invasive plants on Fishers Island. As they guide you through the Chocomount Hill Trail\, they will: \n\nPoint out invasive plants\nDescribe how they identified them and distinguished them from native plants\nDemonstrate what they would do when removing them\nProvide the ideal timeline for the invasive plant’s removal\n\nThis event is organized by the Fishers Island Seagrass Management Coalition and sponsored by the Henry L. Ferguson Museum. \nABOVE PHOTO CREDIT: Diana Fiske leads community members on a guided trail walk through Clay Point Road Trail on Saturday\, October 12\, 2024.\n \nPHOTO CREDIT: Chocomount Hill Trail\, August 7\, 2025\, by Molly Heeney. \nLearn more. \nChocomount Hill Trail2024 Invasive Plant Guided Trail Walk: Clay Point Road Trail
